CChaos said: Man, if you don't like Kowen's posts? Don't read them. Rather simple. To be completely frank, I'd say the discussion has been surprisingly civil as of late. I'm used to threads that even if you MENTION something bad about someone else's preferred product, it's asking for a flame war. These statistical threads seem to have a fairly decent level of conversation and nobody has been screeching at each other. It's kind of peaceful for a change. Pretty much everyone has agreed that the Vita could be doing a hell of a lot better and that we'll see if Sony's attempts at working it out end up functional or futile. I'm not seeing this percieved negativity that you seem intent on pointing out. There's a lot worse opinions of the Vita than are being stated in this thread. Even if Kowen was intentionally trying to sabotage people's perceptions of the Vita here (which frankly would border on the paranoid)...well, so what? How many people on this site don't like Nintendo or Microsoft? Lots of people slag the other consoles all the time. Does it affect people's perceptions? Has there been entire swaths of console purchases falling to the wayside because one person has an opinion on this particular site? I'm just saying you're making an awfully big deal out of what is basically nothing. Let people discuss the sales on the sales site. |
I'm not trying to stifle discussion and I don't mind Kowen's posts. I'm just trying to fully feel out Kowen's reply. Threads like this are a good thing but it shouldn't be based on highlighting the shortcommings of a system alone. Atleast debate something from the data, what went wrong, what can they do to fix it, are the numbers really that bad, how bad do they have to be for "X" to happen? Would it be best to have this thread so one can say, "Look at these terrible numbers", and have everyone else in the room say "Yes, those are pretty bad". Doesn't make for good conversation.
Speaking of good conversation, anyone want address Esmicksee's question besides Mmmfishtacos and myself?

Objectively, what do you think the chances are that the Vita will have decent software support over the next 2-3 years?
Thinking of buying one... but I'm not parting with cash if the system's going the way of the dodo.
Before the PS3 everyone was nice to me :(
